What Did You Do To Your HHR Today?

Yes...VERY Stoked! It came out way better than I thought it could.
Here is a little mod I did today. I had to delete the wiper when I got the graphics done. I had a theme to stick to....so this is what I came up with. I used the ball from a 8-Ball key chain, drilled and tapped it then counter bored it slightly larger than the shaft so it would fit farther down and just screwed it on. Now I just have to figure out how to modify a 8-Ball to fit on to my shifter. The shifter has splines and are not threaded. If anyone has any ideas other than a new shifter...Let me know.

^^^ This ^^^ Is a great idea. Might do something similar.
Anyways... Finally got around to cleaning and waxing the door jambs after all the winter cr@p... Still no rust in sight, some were sealed right, some were a complete fail. Go figure??? Also got a coat of wax on the outer panels but will be going back later and doing a polish and re-wax before summer hits. She's looking good.

The set of Boyd center caps arrived today and I hurried up and replaced the missing one. Got 3 left if that ever happens again, No waiting to replace it.
It was the passenger front wheel cap that went AWOL, but it sure Bothered me driving Morticia with it missing. I feel better now that she is Whole again.

I'm still waiting for the wheel locks to show up but couldn't resist trying on the new g6 wheels for the day. I was amazed how much they changed the presence of the car. Looking forward to buttoning everything else up and getting my drive on.
Finishing up my 8 channel home surveillance system took priority today over putting back together the car. My neighborhood has been getting too much theft lately and I've got a few toys I would really miss.
Just a peek!

to both DucksFan and sick50ford... Nice work.
Today I drove the glistening Wizard's Wagon down to have breakfast with Dad and Sister. A LEO marked me as "some kinda trouble" and followed me all the way down the 309 (about 30 miles)... He was even trying to "push" me part of the way but no dice Dude... He found no reason to pull me over no matter how bad he wanted to...
At least I know my tail lights work!

Installed a new set of license plate frames... Sames as the ones I put on last year, that the damn "spray on salt/ice melter" stuff (Calcium Chloride+) that they use on the roads around here, ate the plating all to .... $@&*%$ ... in one season...... They weren't cheap frames either. So I guess I have a winter set and a summer set now. Something else to do twice a year, FUN!
Thinking about changing out the mooneyes decal on the back glass for a different one...

I replaced my front brake pads (EBC green stuff) and replaced the front end links with moog #k570012. They came filled with grease and have solved the clunk.
Next up is sound deadening for cargo area and rear seats
